TOX_Manual_Process-monitoring-unit_CEP400T_en
Changes in a process, e.g. clinching process, results in deviations in the
press force. If the measured force exceeds or drops below the fixed limit
values, the process is stopped by the monitoring system. To ensure that
the process stops at "natural" deviations of the press force, the limit values
must be chosen correctly and not to narrow.
The function of monitoring equipment depends mainly on the setting of the
evaluation parameter.
3.3.4 Test of the final position of the closed tool
Clinching
The process monitoring system measures and evaluates the maximum
force reached.
To make a statement about a clinching process from the set minimum and
maximum limits, it must be ensured that the clinching tools were fully
closed (e.g. with a precision limit button).
If the measured force is then within the force window, it can be assumed
that the 'X' control dimension is in the required range.
The value for control dimension 'X' (residual bottom thickness) is specified
in the rest report and can be measured on the piece part with a measuring
sensor.
The limits of force must be adjusted to the minimum and maximum values
of the control dimnesion 'X' specified in the test report.
